    @_Lewis_A @virginmedia I had this problem and was advised to buy new cables, did that and it gets minimum 200mb now, also make sure all cables are really tight and fitted properly.

    This is what I get for being a customer for over 8 continuous years and then 5 years before that. This is awful customer service by Virgin media. #Virginmedia @virginmedia

    @virginmedia any idea what’s going on with the network please? Can you at least make a statement? It’s been down since around 2am or thereabouts!

  • traymca
    traymca 💙 (@traymca) reported from Worcester Park, England

    @virginmedia this is getting ridiculous now! What’s happening with your service again today!!! Trying to watch on @BBCiPlayer and it buffers every 30 seconds!! Can’t watch anything and accessing websites including your own is so painful #virginmediadown #virginmedia

  • illymus
    Illy Mus 💙 (@illymus) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia so you hike our prices up and then the Internet has been awful today. Left home at 6am, just got home and still the same issue. Our landline relies on Internet and so does my 83 year old mother who uses it. Remind me what I am paying for???

    @virginmedia My broadband is finally back on. But after this latest horrific outage, I am now actively searching for a new provider. #virginoutage

    Hey @virginmedia. Any chance the Broadband issue is getting fixed soon in SW17? I’m working from home tomorrow, so this is a bummer really!

  • Semykaya
    Sema Kaya Ocakoglu (@Semykaya) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia Customer services are unexperienced and not read to help also. They keep repeating same things

  • bethcanadian
    Beth (@bethcanadian) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia I came home to it working so whatever you did to fix it, thank you!

  • Champs707007
    Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s been erratic all day on both connections and your service check says no issues identified. One minute it’s doing 40-60mbps then it’s just plain dead but shows a connection

  • ninepine
    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported from Banstead, England

    @YodelOnline OK have sent DM with details of the *Three* shipments @virginmedia have now sent due to their faulty software or equipment none of which shipments have been provided with a two hour delivery window by the carrier @YodelOnline as promised. Truly awful customer service.

  • DJMRT
    DJ MRT (@DJMRT) reported from Sutton, England

    It would appear that despite 3 emails to @virginmedia regarding their lack of service, their rubbish broadband and the fact my TV hasn’t worked since November - they have instead chosen to engage debt collectors for a £141.54 (for ONE MONTH) bill. See you in court then I guess.

  • charbster

    @virginmedia do you have website issues? Chat function not responding.

  • aaronuart
    R. Aaron (@aaronuart) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I have had internet issues since September last year I have called up too many times to count and once again internet is out in SW19 and now you want to rise your prices. Please can I get a solution and not one that means a technician cancels last min today!!

    Virgin Media - prices up, service down. Useless, useless, useless. #VirginMedia

  • PwnProblems
    Akita (@PwnProblems) reported

    Virgin Media charge different prices for the Internet packages dependent on your willingness to negotiate. M350 package prices range from £29 to £66 a month. Today they told me they don’t accept blue light discount, which they 100% do. Don’t get angry, hang up, try again.

  • Jess_Simpson645
    Jessica Simpson 😺🐶🐾 (@Jess_Simpson645) reported

    @virginmedia just trying to cancel an engineer appointment by phone. The amount of questions I am being asked to verify it’s me is absolutely ridiculous. They are wanting information that I will have to look up on my computer which is not to hand, so unfortunately they will have to turn up at my house and I will have to tell them they are not needed and I will tell them why.

  • shauny67
    Shaun (@shauny67) reported

    @virginmedia @sharonmariahall Yes excellent internet speeds & the only provider you can put the router into modem mode & add your own kit. 9 times out of 10 any WiFi issues are down to devices or where you have the router not the service. If you have a WiFi pod ensure you set up WiFi back haul.

    Daniel DOA4 (XBOX) & Daniel_DOA4 (PSN) (@Daniel_DOA4) reported

    @virginmedia my internet broadband and tv are not working! This isn’t the first time this has happened to me! Really annoyed and need to use internet everyday. I do have mobile data on my phone but that will most likely max out. Please help! #notfair #BadService #IsSkyBetter?

    @VirginMediaNews Ireland's Minister for Justice: "Irish people are stupid". You're a disgrace O'Callaghan. The only people being manipulated are those who only get their news from RTE, Virgin Media etc.

  • formerprisoner_
    Reformed Prisoner (@formerprisoner_) reported

    @virginmedia 2/2 cont… ombudsman. You constantly failed to deliver a service, made constant promises and failed to deliver on them, so you were left with no choice but to agree to the cancellation. You are quite comfortably the worst broadband provider I have ever come across.

  • AlloquiStrix
    Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reported

    If it took me over a week to fix a network problem (it will actually be 10 days when @virginmedia get around to fixing our problem) I would have been fired. And you can't seem to register for compensation, even if you follow @virginmedia's own help system

  • Petrelli_22

    @virginmedia Nah, this is not on. What is this UK side internet issues going on the past few weeks. What is the estimated turn around on a full resolution?

  • kevin_cox9211

    @virginmedia I need help the call centre person isn't helping and won't listen. Can't get on to account a replacement box that was ordered is now not been ordered.
